The 24K target - lies midway between ADO to the east and CM to the west.
24k - work to date and results
Work to Date : Geological mapping indicates that that 24K target covers an area of strong propylitic to phyllic alteration plus quartz/tourmaline veins and breccias. In addition to surface geophysics and IP surveys conducted on the zone, the target has had 3 holes drilled on it as part of the 2016 program. Detailed soil sampling and in 2015 indicated the presence of a copper geochemical anomaly and the IP survey indicates an underlying anomaly.
Results : In 2016 three shallow holes were drilled to test the southeast sector of a combined soil and IP anomaly. All three intersected mineralization with grades of 0.15 – 0.28% Cu, 0.1 - 0.19 g/t Au and 0.3 - 0.6 g/t Ag over widths of 35 - 39m
24k - next steps
Next Steps : A program of surface trenching and channel sampling is required as a first next step. Additional IP surveying may also be required before further drilling is undertaken. While the IP anomaly is intriguing, the IP signatures on the Caballo Muerto, Caballo Muerto South and Cerro Blano zones are more intense and consequently, further work on 24K Zone will be postponed for the time being.
